Gloucester, Gloucestershire
Are you passionate about working with cutting edge technology and owning the design and engineering on projects delivering solutions that are central to our customer's missions? Join BAE Systems as a Systems Engineer. We are looking for people with strong focus on network infrastructure and security architecture. As a Systems Engineer you'll be working with our customers to own the solution design and engineering methods of their core mission applications, defining innovative solutions to problems, underpinned by robust delivery and engineering methods to deliver capabilities that are not only essential to their business, but they'll love to use. You'll never get bored, with no two projects being the same, but you'll bring your experience from other systems to each challenge to ensure our deliveries and an enduring success. You'll enjoy working as part of a team, typically being the most senior technical person on a project working with other architects, engineers and business analysts to get the best out of the team, allowing everyone to contribute the skillsets. You will be an excellent communicator both internally within your project, as well as externally to senior customer stakeholders to facilitate decision making and co-ordinate design activities with related teams. You'll also will be responsible for ensuring that the solution meets its functional and non-functional requirements, and the correct application of relevant technologies, processes and tool chains. You'll need to ensure that these various components and sub-systems work together both technically as well as operationally, from a customer mission perspective. Your experience will cover software design, infrastructure, delivery methods and engineering approaches.
